Summary
“He had a sudden thought that people really aren’t meant to be read like books, and understood for the blatant words, translated into plaintext for each generation. People are meant to be listened to over and over again like a Pink Floyd song, until you understand them, not by the lyrics, but by the idiosyncratic chords and sounds, confusing, and then tangible. For every action, there was a reaction. An erratic alarm clock, a melody, or both.
Evan was, to him, one long Pink Floyd song, and Barty couldn’t wait to listen again.”A collection of memories chronicling Barty Crouch, Jr’s later years at Hogwarts, primarily his relationship with his childhood best friend, Evan Rosier. Plays out specific pivotal moments, told from Barty’s older memories before his death, and some occasional other POVs. Mostly canon-compliant, but moves some of the dates and ages around, primarily so that Barty Crouch Jr. and his friends are only one year behind the Marauders.
